FARRAGUT NORTH CAST

I am pleased to announce the cast for FARRAGUT NORTHby Beau Willimon Directed by Ed Herendeen:

Eric Sheffer Stevens will play:STEPHEN BELLAMY, a wunderkind press secretary for Presidential Candidate Governor Morris.

Tony Crane will play: PAUL ZARA, Campaign Manager for Governor Morris…a veteran political operative to an insurgent presidential campaign.

Heidi Neidermeyer will play: MOLLY, an intern on the Morris Campaign.

TJ Linnard will play: BEN, Deputy Press Secretary for the Morris Campaign.

Anderson Matthews will play: TOM DUFFY, Campaign Manager for the rival Pullman Campaign.

Anne Marie Nestwill play: IDA HOROWICZ, a political reporter fot the New York Times.

John Lescault will play: FRANK, a reporter for the L.A. Times.

Rodney Creach will play: a waiter.

We’re in the midst of the Iowa caucuses, where Stephen Bellamy(Eric Sheffer Stevens), the whiz-kid press secretary for evident front-runner Governor Morris, sees himself as riding high and certainly standing in firm stead with campaign manager Paul Zara (Tony Crane). Confident in his skills after an attention-getting five year rise to his current position, Stephen has seemingly made no mistakes—until he accepts a meeting with Tom Duffy (Anderson Matthews), the campaign manager for the Morris’ leading opponent… Those who traffic in spin can get caught in the cycle. The title FARRAGUT NORTH refers to the D.C. Metro station where jaded campaign vets trudge every morning to political consulting jobs. This is a timely story about the lust for power and the cost one will endure to achieve it.
